Unfortunately if you have signed up with a birth-date that puts you under the age of 18 or signed up with an out-of-country address we will be scrubbing these entries and removing these participants periodically. If you input the incorrect country or birth-date in error you can sign yourself up again, but before any prizes are awarded you will be subject to age and location verification. Also to those of you saying it's "unfair" that players under the age of 18 as well as Canadians are excluded, we hear you. However, please understand the legalities related with running a tournament this large. The intention isn't to exclude or discriminate against anyone. Plantronics has decided this is the way they prefer their event to be run as to not open themselves up to possible legal issues, and as they attempt to support the StarCraft 2 community and e-sports in general by running events such as these, we're asking people to respectfully understand their position. | ||

I was about to buy them since they were like 20$ but when i looked up reviews they said they break too easily so i didnt buy them. | ||

It just seems you are trying to hide behind legal issues as the reason, and not just the fact that you want to concentrate the money on the American market. How you spend the money is fine, but don't say it is too hard to run the tournament in Canada, as it has been done in the past in a lot of provinces with ease. | ||

I've bought two plantronics headsets in the past and been disappointed by both. This just adds to my list of being let down by this company. | ||

Has absolutely nothing to do with something being "hard". | ||

I'm from Canada and I've been able to register, maybe try it again. | ||

And if I read it correctly, they seem to have strict (be on time or forfeit) rules. | ||
